One day, me and my friend were talking on the phone. We were bored, so we decided to just browse the GTS. Me and my friend were having a conversation about how shinies were "so rare and, so hard to get", and suddenly my friend was silent. I asked him what was the matter, and he said he JUST FOUND A SHINY SALAMENCE!!!! I was all like WHUT!? He was all like YEAH IMA TRADE MEWTWO FO IT!!! And so I went to that "page" or whatever you wanna call it, and I saw it. I didn't know waht to do so I just...TRADED MY MEWTWO THAT I HAD SPENT OVER 2 HOURS TRYING TO GET. I usually would get upset and regret what I had done and cry. But no, this time I was all happy and I was all like HECKZ YAEH BRO I JUST GOT IT!!!! I personally thought it still was a fair trade though. I mean, its a shiny, come on. After I stopped cheering, my friend was all like WHUT U JUST GOT IT!!!?? I FOUND DAT 1ST WHUT DA HECKS BRO!!!??? And I was like SORRY I JUST WANTED IT ITS A SHINY!!! After about 5 minutes I was tired of hearing his complaining. I, LIKE AN IDIOT GAVE HIM THE SALAMENCE FOR A STARLY. He was all like sorry. i give u my mewtwo? I was all like no...iz ok.....I felt like an idiot and was sad the rest of the day...To this day I am constantly annnoying him about he owes me a mewtwo. I was dumb.

As a kid(a smaller kid), I thought HM moves were the best moves in the game. So I taught my Empoleon HM moves only. I found out they f@&#ing sucked, and I did'nt know that there was a move deleter and I thought my Empoleon where trapped with HM moves.

I also cheated a little on the game, and I got a weird pokémon named -----. I tried to switch it out with one of the pokémon in my PC, and the pokémon from my PC dissapeared!

HMs are the most annoying thing. Ever. Get rid of the you-can't-forget-HM-moves rule, game freak!
So, I once made a decent pikachu puppet in art and thought its name was actually 'Pokemon'!
Oh, and in an early platinum runthrough, I knew about sendoff spring and tried to go there right after beating Maylene. Heck, I even cheated and let me walk through walls!

-I had no idea what the difference between Special Attack/Special Defense and Attack/Defense. I thought that it went over to Special Attack/Defense when you "ran out" of Attack of Defense. (Probably got that one from my G/S guidebook where it showed all of that stats, furthering my misunderstanding)
-Thought Bonsly was a Grass-Type Pokemon.
-Thought that catching Rayquaza in R/S was some kind of groundbreaking secret discovered by me, so much so that I nearly put the video on the internet with a video camera.
-Thought that stat-changing moves were worthless.
-Thought that using an Action Replay to obtain every rare Pokemon/shinies made me cool. :P
-Didn't save before fainting Kyogre, thinking that you could either have a chance later in the game to catch it, or that if you fainted it, you could try again... Until the next day when my friend broke the news to me that you can't.

I'll probably think of more eventually.

Winner of the June shiny competition, with 15 points! (three 1/8192 shinies)

Not really stupid, more like silly, but in Pokemon Gold I used to name my Pokemon after my favourite food. So my Typhlosion was named Lasagne and eventually I found out about the cloning glitch so I cloned it so that I had a party of 6 Lasagnes to beat the Elite Four.

Sorry post got cut off as I was saying Naming my 1st rival Gary; I thought I had to for some reason. Naming all my Snolaxs Fatbastard. Using a gameshark. Thinking there was a mew behind that truck the list goes on.

I've thought heaps of stupid things like
•Jessie and James were husband and wife and Meowth was their child (explaining it being able to talk)
•Having to mash the A and B buttons when catching a pokemon
•When my pokemons stats went down in battle it was permanent
•Shiny pokemon were sick pokemon so I used to kill them to put them "out of their misery"
There's heaps more stupid stuff I thought but I can't remember all of it

Once, in Gold, I caught unowns "E" "N" "T" "E" and "I" and put them in that order in the party. Supposedly, I'd get a Celebi if I went to the Ilex shrine like that. I crossed all of Ilex with those low level unowns only to find disappointment.

Oh boy, I just remembered this one. When I was over my friend's CJ's house, (also my friend edmund was there, the one from the mewtwo-salamence incident), we decided to go on this website called youtube. This is when I first discovered youtube. CJ said it was a cool website with pokemon videos. Ok. Fine. We were watching some videos, and somehow, we stumbled upon this video. I'm not sure if it was a hack or if it was fake using like a videomaker or whatever, but back to what the video was. The guy was plaing firered and was in this cave. He walked up a few stairs and there was a platform. There was a pokemon there. It looked like mew's overworld sprite. But it wasn't. When the battle started, I remember awesome music playing. As the guy sent out his blastoise, we could finally see what the other pokemon was. Poopie. That's right. It was called poopie. It's sprite was a log of poo. Oh boy. I BELIEVD IT WAS REAL. I went home telling my mom that there was a pokemon called poopie. I even tried going in every cave in pokemon diamond trying to find it. Here is the fun part. My friends knew it was fake. One day, I went to school saying, I can't find poopie. First of all, I got in trouble for saying poopie. And my friends were like, but poopie isn't real. I was like OHHHH. ok. And that's it. I didn't even feel dumb. I went on with my day. (exept for the fact that I got sad when I got in trouble) I was DUMB. x2 (sorry for long post)

Oh I remember, it took me so much time to actually know I was wrong.
I thought that Special Attack meant moves that are super effective against and Special Defense was your defense for super effective moves.
